About Biscoito maisena passatempo

Biscoito Maisena Passatempo is a popular Brazilian snack known for its soft texture and slightly sweet flavor. Made primarily from wheat flour, sugar, and vegetable oils, it is a type of maizena biscuit, named after the corn starch traditionally included in similar recipes. Its origins are rooted in Latin American cuisine, where biscuits of this kind are enjoyed with coffee, tea, or as a quick snack for all ages. While it offers a convenient source of carbohydrates, its high sugar content and presence of refined ingredients make it a less ideal choice for those seeking nutrient-dense foods. The biscuit does not contain significant amounts of fiber, protein, or essential vitamins, which limits its health benefits. It’s best consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
